color 4 (or maybe color 2) is just ruby from Carmina right?
Carmina's Rubi is color #2.

Color 2 and ruby are close to one another.

Mike, I don't see natural shell on your graph, yet I know you own a few pairs. Please correct this oversight ASAP, m'kay???
PS, ever thought of dipping your toe into some Horween green shell, a la Carmina or AE?
He is still pissed cause he thought they were coming with a catspaw sole

Terrible customer service...
My last new arrival for quite some time (time to sell sell sell!)
Haha famous last words- just wait until AoC gets a surprise delivery of ravello lwbs or someone lists a barely worn pair of cigar indys in your size....
I totally see where you are coming from. My question to you is; Let's assume you have the $600 Alden and a $1200 calf shoe from a different maker. What sets that $1200 shoe apart from the Alden that is made of calf and is constructed in a similar manner? "Paying for the brand" is not a reasonable excuse as 99% of world could only name Nike and Reebok if you asked them to name a couple of shoe brands.
For me, in my opinion, it is things like quality of stitching, overall finishing and QC that sets makers apart. Give Alden and <insert high end brand here> the same materials and that high end maker will produce a better product.
I think getting a perfect Alden is more LUCKY than UNLUCKY. I'd say you had a pretty good run going for your first 90%...it was bound to end.
